It was an earthquake cluster. The main shock was preceded by several smaller quakes the evening and night before smaller orange dots) ranging in size
between 4.0 & 4.8.

You're probably correct. I'm thinking really big ol' seafaring ferry in just a few hundred-thousand years.

I hope so. On the other hand, the suburbs of Los Angeles should extend about half way down the peninsula by then, making for a VERY long commute to
downtown LA. Oh, and San Diego, it got smooshed in the process.

When I looked at the clips this morning I saw Baja moving, and not northward but pivoting to the northwest? Alta California, west of the San Andreas
would also be moving the same rate north as the peninsula... eventually making California a 1,500 mile long island. Well, at least in my crystal ball!
LOL
